Downside of Connie having her baby, she was at the hospital for five days. I still hadn't told dad about the crazy lady. I figured I didn't need to worry him. He was already worried about his little sister. I didn't worry about it either. Then dad had the night shift at work.
"You'll be fine Edie. Just heat up something for dinner, do your homework, go to bed at a decent hour." Dad said as he headed out the door. As soon as he left I went to the kitchen and opened the fridge. Looking through it, I grabbed the pizza from the other night and took the box into the livig room to watch Soapnet. They had another special on. It was about All My Children. I watched for a littlewhile, drooled over Jacob Young AKA JR Chandler. Most of the guys on that show are Drool worthy but still. I watched a few TVland reruns after that. Time was going by extremely slowly. Not even I dream of Genie could make it go faster. After a little while I called Ryan.
"hey." I said as soon as he picked up.
"Hey Eden, what's up?" He asked.
"Nothing I'm just bored." I sat on the couch, Monchi and Cocoa at my feet.
"Have I congratulated you on the baby?"
"Repeatedly." I smiled.
"Well you just sounded so excited over the phone. Scared the living daylights out of me." Ryan laughed. I rolled by eyes, even though he couldn't see it.
"I'm a god mother, of course I'm excited."
"yeah, yeah."
"Now I hate you." We talked for a few hours then I noticed it was getting dark.
"So anyway... Eden?" Ryan said slowly.
"Umm... Ryan can you come over?" I asked, looking out the window, kind of freaked.
"Why?"
"Because My dad's not home and the crazy park lady won't get out of my head." I answered.
"I'll be there in a few." Ryan said and hung up. I hung up, but kept the phone close. When the doorbell rang I jumped fifty feet in the air.
"Who is it?" I asked, slowly walking over. Yeah I was being silly, but better silly than sorry... or something like that.
"It's me, Ryan." I breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door. Ryan stood there, the dye out of his hair, hat firmly in place.
"Hey." I said standing back so he could get in. I closed the door behind him. "Hungry? I have pizza."
"Sure." Ryan nodded and we went to the kitchen. "We should work on our lines." he said thoughtfully as I got te pizza back out.
"Okay." I nodded, putting the pizza down. "Theo, we can't keep doing this! She's going to find out eventually."
"I know okay? I'm going to tell her. Just not now." Ryan got up to heat up the pizza.
"Why not?"
"Serenity! I'll do it! Get off my back!" Ryan shouted. I started to laugh.
"I'm sorry. I just can't do this right now." I jumped up on the counter.
"Okay, we'll find something else to do..."
"Well we could always-" I stopped. "Was that the door?" I jumped down.
"I didn't hear anything." I looked down. Monchi and Cocoa were alert. I used my foot to nudge their noses into the kennels they were laying in. Ryan started for the door, me right behind him. We peered into the living room.
I'd forgotten to lock it. The crazy lady was in my living room, with a wild look,
and a gun.
A/N okay that was extremely short but I wanted to end it there. besides it's 11:30 and I have to be up by four... not fun.
